SUR·VIV·AL : n i. the act of dying slower than those around you .
alright i’ve been putting off posting this for a while now because i thought i’d have my stuff figured out soon, but the way things are looking right now: i won’t. i know i’ve been saying that i’d be back eventually, but things have been coming up left & right that have seriously affected my online presence & i think it’s time for a fresh start. i’m not sure whether i’ll just revamp, or if i’ll archive this blog altogether & actually start anew, but i don’t have the mental capacity to just pick up where i’ve left off here, i hope y’all understand. i know this post might sound more serious than i usually am, & i’m really sorry for that!! i’m just not in a good place right now & a lot of the residual Bad Feels seem to be lingering in the form of this blog, if that makes any sense at all?
ANYWAY. currently, i have a totally different muse in the works, & i’m hoping that’ll help me get back into the swing of rp related things, but for now i’m going to give poe a break & hope that my muse & will to write return soon. i’ll be sure to keep you guys updated, as i’m planning on setting up my other blog this weekend! i really appreciate everyone’s patience & i love you all to bits, sorry for taking so long to let y’all in on this stuff!!

his dreams are stygian. colored black & blue with the tip of a lightsaber. where crimson had seemed like blood that he tasted between his teeth, tongue stuck to the roof of his mouth. they turn to nightmares. loud like the sound of the earth rupturing beneath him. cold hands & even colder tools. loneliness is the smell of a sterile room. a kiss pressed to his forehead then it is silent. loneliness is the sound of a ship taking off. it doesn’t return, but what comes in something akin to the sun. he feels it on his skin as if for the first time & large dark eyes open to the sight of him. in all his exhaustion, a smile cracks open on his face that seems ancient & unfamiliar. ( a sight for terribly sore eyes. he smiles because there is still light. ) ❛ ━━━━━━━ POE DAMERON. ❜
HIS BREATHS FALL IN TROCHAIC PROCESSION, subconsciously mirroring the cyclical crescendos of inhales that declare a promise of return, of survival; his existence has seemed routinely beyond utility walls, as though he had been living vicariously through the rise and fall of another’s chest, waiting –––––– some metaphor for his staunch resolution, perhaps, for all his faith & need to extend his hope unto others. thumb brushes the synthetic leaves of flowers (of which most are from the commander himself), picking away at the dusty remnants of impatience, time, in a seemingly innocent mean of distraction –––––– but even this, he thinks, has become a dull practice of mere comfort, for he can’t dismiss the worry that seems incessant in his forethoughts. when his name lingers in the quiet ambiance, lurid & novelly familiar, everything escapes him in the moment he takes to heed the pair of eyes long yearned for, excitement & rapture & relief impressed by his wide grin & bright eyes –––––– (remember to thank the stars later, foolish boy, for the sun loves you now, embraces you with his gilded smile). ❛ finn, pal. you –––––– i’m. . . you feeling okay ? ❜
POE DAMERON #5 AKA MY UNDOING
i want you all to know that despite what you look like or what you’ve gone through, what you have been told or called or made out to be: you are fucking gorgeous, inside and out. you are fucking celestial - you are fucking important and you fucking matter. the universe is damn lucky to have you here with us, and i feel genuinely blessed to be alive at the same time as you, because each and every one of you is uniquely beautiful and you offer such wonder in your own special way; you are talented and incredible and no one can take that away from you, because you’re strong and you’ve gotten so far already. i want to remind you that you’re not alone, and that i truly am here for you and think the world of you, because that’s what you deserve and more. take a second to remind yourself how lovely you are, because you’re here now and you’ve made it and you’re doing such amazing things. take a second to breathe, and thank your beautiful body for sustaining, for pulling through every bad day that has been thrown your way, for every single time it has helped you move on. you are beautiful, and you are loved, please don’t let anyone let you believe any different.

her attempts at suppressing her giggles were F U T I L E , seeing as the current situation had her atop the pilot’s back . her tiny feet kicked out of anticipation , arms wrapped securely a r o u n d his neck to prevent the DISASTER of her falling off of him . childish antics seemed to settle , and boy , was she prepared to cause shenanigans . she had not been raised to a c t like a nuisance , more like a poised , perfect little mary sue . now that she had the opportunity to be playful and have friends , she was READY to take on that C H A L L E N G E .

THIS JOCULAR AMBIANCE BEGETS WHAT MIRTH marks his bright features with lines of age; it is theirs, this freedom, & there is a promise of forever surmised in moments such as these. amusement manifests in bubbling laughter, thunderous merriment rising from beyond his throat; strong hands support the weight of the other as he capers about edges & bounds in a sporadic procession of two, occasional sharp turn preceded by his parody of a fighter’s laser canon noise. imitative radio crackle soon succeeds what laughter had previously parted his grin, & he addresses erin with muffled regard.
❛ krrrk –––––– black leader to erin, come in erin !! ❜
do you have a medkit???? cause I scrapped my knees falling for you.♡
❛ stars, finn –––––– !! ❜ antecedent worry is abated by quiet chuckle, blithe regard afforded to the man who is, evidently, unharmed (much to dameron’s subjugated relief). a tense arm lowers & digits press, fold ‘round the shoulder of this individual whom he’s too afeard to lose; such cossetting is decidedly unwarranted, he knows, for much worse has befallen him & fretting over such incidental affairs seems undue.
soldier , survivor –––––– what acme of perseverance & existing has found its way to poe dameron’s stark crux has sated his incessant want for something to hold onto & care for. excessive, it may seem, but to be reminded of what fate has assigned him this cosmic marvel through such veritably (dare he say) cute means is enough to merit a brisk press of lips against cheek, laugh dripping past a gleeful smile. ❛ you had me worried there, pal. didn’t peg you for the cheesy type, but i’ll admit –––––– that was adorable. ❜
rough, worn fingers trace themselves along the tired lines of his shoulders as he sleeps. tentatively pressing his lips to his shoulder blades and humming a tune he'd heard in passing. anything to shake the nerves from his limbs. the closeness made his head swim but he whispers adoration into his skin anyway.
VULNERABILITY MANIFESTS IN UNCONVENTIONAL WAYS , in various increments of lurid wonder within the heart of man, within the psyche of a conscious beast aware of his inevitable, igneous demise. kindling sinew –––––– dark, rouging skin burns with every feather touch to the marred canvas of his back. these clandestine affairs beyond the adversely familiar litter of war & chaos within the galaxy that surrounds them, paired with the disquiet by the doing of his own renegade thoughts, usher lethargic sentiments full of warmth & adoration.
the soft, continuous flutter of skin joining skin slowly draws him from inertness & he becomes acutely aware of the tickle of breath just beyond his sleep-stiff joints. there is naught to be done when his laugh spills in one loud, vibrant flush, & he instead turns to meet the face of his company; gaze methodically traverses the lines of the body beside him, familiarising himself anew with the man he’d come to care so ardently for. quirk of lips precedes tired speech, voice a barely discernible resonance between shared breaths. ❛ mm –––––– hey, you. ❜

‘ oh, don’t make any promises you don’t intend to keep, flyboy, ‘ ariadne said with a wink, pushing herself off the pillar to head back towards the cantina. ‘but yeah, i’m free tonight, since you asked so nicely. ‘
❛ now –––––– you callin’ me a liar, miss ? ❜ he’d afforded a brief huff of a laugh, dusty rag wrung by stained digits to occupy the space between sweaty, calloused palms. how she’d entertained his rejoinder with one of her own seized his interest wholly, as though it hadn’t theretofore. ❛ you don’t wanna stick around ‘n watch me play in my cockpit ? ❜
mourndecay:
getting caught in the cross - fire had not been apart of the PRINCESS’S intentions , neither had she deliberately wanted to be left to bleed out amongst the thousands of people thrown out like rag dolls . to slip into a slumber that would most likely last for eons . their immortality came with a price , BUT SHE COULDN’T PAY IT AGAIN . not after the first sleep . her body cries out for the medical attention it needed , the light gasps of fear escaping her crimson stained petals showing that her lungs screamed for oxygen .
it was only when a male was hovering over her , the liquid spilling over the rims of her lips to emphasize more on the matter of her misery . she can’t mutter any form of speech , hand shakily trying to reach out ; SHE’S TRYING SO HARD . and it drops . strength had not been a strong tribute right there and then , and her fight against it began to die out .
SAVE HER PRECIOUS LITTLE SOUL AND KEEP IT SAFE .

UNCERTAINTY SWALLOWS BOLDNESS OF FLAME , a phoenix taken by the throes of war; he endures destruction with practiced ease, forced to regard cinder & the anguish of fallen with helpless, lamentable gaze, incapable of salvaging more than what he alone can bear. heavy pinions become felled by his own desperation, laboured breaths parting his lips in hot, plaintive gasps as rose dusts his dirtied face & dark curls amass in sweaty disarray. // this is his concession ––––– to press, fragment the burdens of unabating deterrents; provisional inconveniences seem peripheral in the comparable prospect of all the good that the resistance promises, & so he continues with distinguished gait, determined to uphold such ideals.
❛ just ––––– just stay with us a little longer, miss ! ❜
solicitous proclivities manifest in what meticulously crafted oaths he offers & digits poise shakily ‘pon the flesh of this viscerally familiar effigy of royalty, whose crimson veneer hardly disturbs him beyond foreseeable concern. instincts call to the diplomatic side of himself, to shoulder this hurt for all those victim to inordinate evil ––––– he continues with steady timbre, eyes kind & reminiscent of the commander beyond defensive lines, whose smile is reflective of his unwavering warmth.
❛ my name’s poe dameron. . . ––––– just keep your eyes on me, we’ll get out of this, no sweat ! can ––––– on the count of three, i’m going to pick you up, is that okay ? ❜
